Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[birdsbeaks]

Work is hectic at the moment, and unlikely to improve so I’ve not been able to spend the time I’d like here.

Nevertheless, I just picked up this a couple of days ago. 7 days from being dropped off at the post office in USA to arriving at my door in Aus.

After a budget meeting with my wife it may be the last knife I buy for a little while, but it’s a nice way to enter a break.

One of my favorites and a fine one at that! Congrats!

 

[Joefairbanks]

Lovely color horn.

Thank you Dwight! I really like it too. In person it's kind of a butterscotch color!

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks pal !




Glad you were able to get out for market day !





Good to see they stock an adequate supply of HP sauce




Quite the cast of characters !




Starry night Lamb !

Thanks Steve The guy who runs that stall is a funny character, and we have quite a lot of banter with him, which he takes well. He buys huge consignments of foodstuffs he sells off cheap, sometimes it is stuff that is close to its 'sell by' date, and we always joke that he changes the dates on the packets. Which, to be honest, he might well do!

Beautiful Steve

Home from an exhausting day at work and relaxing with Gidge. I sure hope the rest of you that have this chest crud are recovering better than I am.

Sorry to hear you're struggling Jeff, my chest wasn't TOO bad, but my mate Wolfie suffered a lot Hope you're feeling better soon my friend Gidge is looking good

Looks a bit like Tool Man incognito from that angle!

LOL! Yes, I'd say they have the same tailor, but Tool Man is tight as a drum, and buys cheap stuff from fleamarkets. Andy, on the other hand, browses charity shops, in well-to-do areas, purchasing good quality clothing left behind my dead, rich men!

Classic Tool Man! This is what I keep coming back for!

With everyone else having colorful names, I'm wondering how this bloke managed to remain simply "Martin." Is he "connected" - if you know what I mean? "Made" as it were? Don't let him bully you into not giving him a more personalized moniker - let him know you've got some friends with a bunch of knives and that know how to use them! (they don't have a lambsfoot emoji, for shame)

Martin is quite a character, but he's a good distance from Tool Man's stall. I just thought he might like some photos of himself at work, as I had my camera with me. Martin is Jewish, and at one time Leeds, and the market, was full of Jewish cloth merchants and tailors. Now there are two Jewish cloth sellers in the market, and only a handful of working Jewish tailors in the city

This guy needs one of those lambsfoots with a beard comb secondary. Wait, do they make those?

This could also be Tool Man even deeper incognito!

Tool Man can't even use a phone! He thinks a laptop is something you eat your lunch off!

Looks like there's about to be a fracas - is this your doing?

Doesn't it?! I only noticed when I cropped my pics! I don't know what was going on, hopefully nothing much. The young lady has only been there a couple of months, the older one for years, and she's in charge. Hopefully it didn't escalate!

Genuine Yorkshire expression:

As always, a spectacular lamb!

Thanks for the afternoon entertainment, Jack!

Thank you kindly

Well, if you are going on a knife diet, you found a nice one to start your program.

That is certainly a lovely-looking knife

I HATE those budget meetings!

I HATED them!

Can’t believe this is happening but I’m in shorts and a t shirt today. A wonderful heatwave!!

Oh no! What happened?!

My wife is always trying to cut sugars and unhealthy things out of my diet and she bought me a Cirkul water bottle. Thought it was going to suck and it is amazing. No more sodas and sugary drinks for me. On a 30 day eat and drink healthy challenge. Unfortunately that means no beer or liquor . My goal is to turn it into habit. Remarkably I have not had an energy drink in a long time so I know I can do it.

I don't know what that is, but Good Luck Paul! I made crazy decisions last year - quit booze and went vegan for Lent! I'm not even Catholic! This year, I might drop cake and sugary stuff

Smooth stag lamb is in the pocket today. Hope everyone is having a nice day.

Sweet pic

 

[Jack Black]

I'm off to hit the hay Guardians, catch you tomorrow amigos

I can't play the banjo, but I DO have the teeth for it

 

[Jakeywax31]

I don't know what that is

It basically a water bottle that funnels water through a flavor thing that gives it some flavor. You can set it to explosion of flavor to a strawberry farted on water and you can barely taste it . Sugar free of course.

 

[birdsbeaks]

a strawberry farted

That sounds adorable.

Nothing like the look of a vintage knife!

Very classy photo of that beautiful Lamb Jeff.

Shorts?
It's already 83 here, supposed to be.90+

Brother you need to relax, go and have a bacon sanga & a beer. Age will be upon you soon enough! ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN

You do realise the wife will require chocolates on Valentines Day

 

[Fodderwing]

I can't play the banjo, but I DO have the teeth for it

That's hilarious. I believe you referred to your mouth as a "graveyard" one time! All I can say is with the dentists you have to choose from... you never had a chance!

 

[mitch13]

Rosewood again.

I hope you start feeling better soon, at least you've got Gidge !
